about

“‘Waking Up With You’ nods to the glory days of shimmering college-rock, back when groups like 10,000 Maniacs and the Sundays briefly ruled the roost. There’s even a late-Eighties sheen to the chorus, where guitar arpeggios share equal space with Belle’s crystalline croon.” – Rolling Stone

“Shoegazey pop band Nightjacket make dreamy, lovesick jams for nocturnal settings. Wailing, MBV-ish guitars headline ‘You’re Trying Too Hard’, followed by Belle’s sultry, melancholic delivery.” – Stereogum

"Shifting between precise, thunderous, and wide-open Americana-tinged verses, it’s Belle’s soaring, classically trained vocals that give ‘Waking’ its wings." – FLOOD Magazine

about

Nightjacket Los Angeles, California

Beauty In The Dark introduces new analog synth textures and smoky, Nico-like vocals to the Nightjacket sound. From the sultry shoegaze of “I Can’t Believe” and swirling atmospherics of “You’re Trying Too Hard” to the romantic “Pink and Yellow Roses” and “Waking Up With You,” the album is a contemplative work that analyzes both the perils of love and the overwhelming power it has over all of us. ... more

Track Name: Waking Up With You: I can’t keep you off my mind
But I’m only a girl
With a suitcase and the world
I can’t trust you with my time
Cuz I like what I heard
But they’re just some little words

Ooh, waking up with you
There’s so much more to find
I wanted you to kill my mind
I wanted you to kill my mind

Ooh, waking up with you
There’s beauty in the dark
I wanted to forget my heart
I wanted to forget my heart

I can’t keep you on the line
If I’m only a girl
And that’s just a little word
I can’t trust you til you’re mine
When I like what I heard
But it all feels so absurd

Ooh, waking up with you
There’s so much more to find
I wanted you to kill my mind
I wanted you to kill my mind

Ooh, waking up with you
There’s beauty in the dark
I wanted to forget my heart
I wanted to forget my heart

I know what you want me to do
I know that you wanted it too
I know what you want me to do
I know that you wanted me too

Ooh, waking up with you
There’s so much more to find
I wanted you to kill my mind
I wanted you to kill my mind

Ooh, waking up with you
There’s beauty in the dark
I wanted to forget my heart
I wanted to forget my heart
